Why change

A water filter is a consumable item.

With every liter, the filter material becomes more clogged. This is intentional; it traps what shouldn't end up in your glass. That's why every filter element has a capacity, and that's why there's a replacement indicator. Technically, an exhausted filter continues to operate, but with decreasing performance, and eventually, hardly any water passes through. For a product whose results you cannot see, timely replacement is the most cost-effective safety gain available.

  • Change signal SelfpressThe filtering process requires significantly more force than usual. This is not a defect.
  • Alternating signal SqueezeDespite cleaning and an intact bag, hardly any water is getting through anymore.
  • Capacity1,500 liters with the Selfpress, up to 500 liters with the Squeeze.

Which filter element do you need?

Your filter over time.

  1. In use Allow to air dry

    Remove after use and allow to air dry. Clean with plain water only, no soap, no vinegar essence.

  2. The Change Signal More power, less flow

    More effort during self-pressing, tougher flow during squeezing. This is not a defect, but the signal.

  3. In stock Best before at least 2 years

    The Selfpress filter element has a shelf life of at least 2 years when stored optimally. Those who plan for all eventualities don't just store the device, but also the supplies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why switch at all?

A water filter is a consumable product: With every liter, the filter material becomes more clogged. This is by design, as it traps everything you don't want in your glass. That's why every filter element has a capacity, and that's why there's a change signal: more effort required for the Selfpress, sluggish flow for the Squeeze.

Can I use the old filter longer?

Technically it continues to run, but with decreasing performance, and eventually hardly any water passes through. For a product whose results you cannot see, timely replacement is the most cost-effective safety gain there is.

How do I know when the filter needs to be changed?

With the Selfpress, remember that the filtering process requires significantly more force than usual. With the Squeeze, remember that despite cleaning and an intact bag, hardly any water passes through. The murkier the water you are filtering, the sooner.

Which element fits my device?

For the Selfpress 500 ml: Replacement filter. For the Selfpress XL 800 ml: Replacement filter XL. For the Squeeze 500 ml and 1 liter: Squeeze Replacement filter. There is no replacement filter element for the Straw.

How long does a filter element last?

The Selfpress filter element lasts for 1,500 liters, which is approximately 2,500 applications for the Selfpress 500 ml. The Squeeze filter element lasts for up to 500 liters, which is the maximum under optimal conditions.

Is it the bottle or the pouch that's included?

No. This is a replacement filter element, not a complete water filter. Bottle or bag are not included.

How long can I store a filter for?

With optimal storage, the Selfpress filter element has a shelf life of at least 2 years. While the hollow fiber membrane is potentially almost indefinitely durable, the activated carbon filter loses some of its performance over time. The filter can still be used afterwards, but reduced filter performance must be expected.

Can I use soap or vinegar essence for cleaning?

No. Neither soap nor vinegar essence may be used to clean the filter element. These can permanently damage the filter. Clean water is sufficient.

Where are the lab results?
